From the first glance I felt that we were on the right place. Very cozy and stylish ambience in an old beautiful house.
Service probably one of the best I’ve experienced recently! Even though not much of an expert for seafood I felt like we picked best from the menu because of recommendations we’ve got from the waiter. Monkfish tail was extraordinary fresh and well prepared, very simple yet delicious.
Although bit pricey this place is definitely must visit if you’re looking for extraordinary dining experience.

Can recommend the grilled perch with Swiss chard, the fish was just a bit under-salted for me. The spaghetti starter with creamy shrimp and zucchini sauce was also good. Huge portions, would recommend asking for 1/2 portion which is possible for some dishes for 60% of the price. Very cosy environment, the place feels genuine and popular among locals. Good and friendly service, the waiter deboned the fish at our table.

An old traditional restaurant where you can enjoy the best of the Danube and Sava rivers to the sounds of live music. It’s good to book because the table is hard to get.
I recommend smoked carp or fish soup for starters and pike-perch (Smuđ) in the oven for the main course.
We had a bottle of Aleksandrovic Triumh, excellent white wine.
Overall excellent place, amazing food and service.

In comparison to my last visit i have to say that things did change,for the worse,unfortunately. Yes,the atmosphere is still there,live music etc,but as far as i am concerned,the most important thing about any restaurant is food, quality of it,quantity and price. It became quite expensive(in all aspects) and if that alone was not enough for profitability increase,the size of meals went down,not up. Interesting,i think it can work for short and medium term given its popularity and good name. I ll visit again tho,to see if this was one off experience or not.

We go there very often to get fresh fish and seafood dishes. Located right beside the Danube river and Zemun Cay its on a very nice location. This restaurant has great fish selection, wines and desserts. Our waiter was Nikola and he was excellent. We had great fresh Sea Brem, two different risottos and grilled octopus. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and the musicians were great too. Would have been nice if they would have offered a cake as we said it was birthday occasion and I guess they forgot. Other times we came for such occasions they always offered cake. All in all its nice restaurant.

Very good but we are not at George 5
Top local fish Saran, beautifully cooked 50 euros per kg
Where it goes wrong for me is having taken 4 oysters and 5 langoustines charged respectively €31 and hold on to €65 or €150 per kg
That cost me 250 euros for two
Nice local scam in my well-established opinion
It's a simple scam so don't go there, there are probably better

Zemun still exudes the atmosphere of the Austrian -Hungarian Empire today.
The Gardos Tower offering a panoramic view of Danube is the symbol of this extraordinary town.
Restaurant Saran is also famous symbol of this town.
Native Zemun residents have the wayof saying
Visiting Zemun and not visiting Saran is like never visiting Zemun at all.
Testy served all kinds of fish ,specifically served fish soup,,nice atmosphere,stylish interior,domestic wine ,live music....
Excellent place.
Enjoy.

A traditional central European restaurant serving mostly fish dishes right near the river. Food is very tasty and comes in the right portions: never too small or too big. Service provided by the staff was friendly and correct. A great place if you've enough of typical Serbian food and wanna go for something different. Recommended.

This plase has all the traditional feeling of Serbia.
Alongside Dounav River with great fish tastes.
Everyone should taste the taste of fish soup as a starter.
Then we had a grate river fish roasted about 1,5 kilo.
Excellent service and great white house wine.
The prices thow were a little bit salty.

This restaurant, which we have experienced before, always maintains its style and stands out with its quality. The ambiance of the place is different in winter and even more beautiful in summer. But I love indoor space.
All the dishes are beautiful and delicious, we ate a very nice carp today and I also loved the desserts...
This may be the most beautiful place in Zemun..
By the way, I cannot forget that the service was very good...

Place by the Danube, wonderfully decorated, food was ok, good selection of wines, a bit expensive, but the staff and service was very poor. Unkind waiters, no smile, had to wait for ages for the service, although it wasn't crowded. They had no manners.

I had the tuna with black sesame on a bed of sweet potato purée with broccoli tempura. It was one of the most perfect meals I have ever eaten, accompanied by Serbian white wine.
The staff are friendly and knowledgeable which made the experience even more enjoyable!

I have a sophisticated appreciation for fresh fish and seafood, so I decided to try this place. It is truly wonderful. Non-pretentious, decent service, amazing fish dishes, a subtle bohemian feel to the atmosphere. I came a few times and every time the food was great. Also good wine selection, I liked the Croatian muscat Kozlovic.

Incredible how the waiters behaved! To leave and never come back. Hostile,unfriendly almost as if wanting to fight with the guests. The portionsare small,the quality so so. But the atmosphere created by the staff is terrible!!! I am a local and I wanted to show some of my friends a nice atmosphere,but this is shameful!!!
Avoid at all costs

The food is amazing, they are master of fish. You pay for the serving, but the serving includes an amazing fish spread. The main course, either fish or pasta, is perfect. And the same goes for desert. Also the staff is very kind, making jokes. If you want to make sure you get a table, make a reservation as it is usually packed.
